About this saved recipe
Ingredients
- 1 1/10 lb fatty minced meat
- a pinch fresh parsley
- 1 onion
- to taste salt
- to taste black pepper
- to taste pepper powder
- to taste cumin
Instructions
- 1Preheat the oven to 392°F (392°F) using both the lower and upper heating elements.
- 2Grate the onion, place it in a fine mesh sieve, and press gently to remove excess moisture; set aside.
- 3In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced meat, drained grated onion, a pinch of fresh parsley, salt, black pepper, pepper powder, and cumin.
- 4Mix thoroughly with your hands until the spices are evenly distributed and the mixture becomes slightly sticky, indicating proper binding.
- 5Line a baking tray with parchment paper and spread the meat mixture onto it, forming a uniform slab about the thickness of one finger (≈2 cm).
- 6Using a sharp knife, cut the slab into six equal portions, each roughly two fingers thick (≈4 cm).
- 7Place the tray on the second rack from the top of the preheated oven to promote quick browning of the tops.
- 8Bake for 20–25 minutes, rotating the tray halfway through to ensure even coloration, until the kebap pieces are cooked through and the edges turn lightly crispy.
- 9Remove the tray from the oven and let the kebap rest for 3–5 minutes; this allows the juices to redistribute and the exterior to firm up.
- 10Serve the kebap hot, optionally with flatbread, yogurt sauce, and a fresh salad.
